” I’m sick of all these so-called T.E.A. Party leaders and their organizations. “ <<<
Sure, it’s a fiasco but don’t be so hard on an average Joe, who is no pol, trying to put together a huge event, dealing with the various versions of over the top egos, demands and their political posturing. Think if you were him. Maybe he leans Perry, maybe not. Heck, Crow may not even know that it’s all over the net that he is a Perry supporter, if he in fact is. Ordinary people are still not used to their private remarks and preferences going viral.
I feel sorry for O’Donnell. She too is an ordinary Joe who lacks experience and has been pummeled by both sides for bloopers that would be common to anyone of us who weren’t churned out of the “machine”.
Well put. For as long as I can remember, we've always complained about how politicians are so fake and packaged, never deviating from their scripted soundbites. How we are so sick of the polished charm, having them tell us what we want to hear during the election but once elected, doing something else entirely.
As soon as we get regular citizens running for public office, we rip them to shreds because they don't ooze the polish that we are accustomed to seeing.
I guess we might as well be content with the Ivy-league bred empty suits as our political leaders because the way we treat everybody else, that's all we are going to end up with.
